A PEARL LOST IN THE SEA.

Why mourn for the hours that have van
ished.
Why grieve for the things that are lost:
Why weep for the flowers of summer
That lie meath the cold winters frost?
ward?
Or revive the dead rose to the lea:
We might as well try as go searching
For pearl that is lost in the sea.
Why cherish dream that has ended:
Why look down the vista of years,
But to suffer loug buried sorrow,
To open the wound with new tears?
1t is over forget it,-as useless
(No matter how anxious We be)
To try to go back, as recover
pearl that is lost in the sea.
Why burden to-day with regretting
What might have been. had we but known?
Why lon lfor the much beloved music
After the singer has flown:
Will all the regrets and the longings
Avail against Fates stern decree?
All. no, for the Past and its chances
Are as pearls that are lost in the sea,
Why waste precious moments in thinking
OF scenes that were beautiful then?
Why linger o er graves that hold treasures
They ne'er will return us again?
Why wish for our youth and its gladness
When from sorrow and care we were free?
When It's gone from our grasp, gone for
ever,
AS pearl that is lost in the seal

PROHIBITION.
The Issue Is Playing the Deuce
With the Republicans in Iowa.

The Issue Is Playing the Deuce
With the Republicans i'm Iowa.
Special to the Globe.
Dies MONIES, To-, Nov. 10.-The s.g-
nal defeat of the Republican ticket in
Des Moines and Polk county has
alarmed the managers and movement
is alreadyon foot to take the prohibition
question out of state politics. The state
temperance alliance is hard at work cir
culating petitions in the interest of a
constitutional amendment to be sub
mitted, and which is now being care
fully prepared. Said the secretary of
the state temperance alliance: Our
idea is to get this question out of poll
ties, to place the law where it cannot be
easily tempered with. We shall work
for the immediate repeal of the phar-
macv law and the proper amendment of
the present prohibitOry law. Then we
shall present our constitutional amend
ment with view of making the law
constitutional instead of statutory.
When the temperance law is made
part of the constitution it will be out of
the way of parties and out of politics.
There is no probability that the amend
ment, if submitted, would be adopted by
the people, but the proposed movement
seems to be necessary to prevent the
Republican managers from cutting
loose from the advocacy of prohibition
and throwing it entirely overheard.
Something evidently will need to be
done to quiet the independents, who are
growing in strength and courage in
their opposition to prohibition.

GLOW IN DEMAND

Provided He Defeats Frank
Glover---The Latter En- Route to
Minneapolis.
If Glow wins in his contest with
Glover he will have plenty of offers to
meet heavy-weights. Conley and Kill
len both announce their intention of
challenging him, and he is under agree
ment to meet Pete Nolan if the latter is
not defeated by Jim Fell, and then Mike
Cleary wrote, wanting six-round con-
test at Louisville. His refusal to give
guarantee that the fight would not be
interfered with, however, dispOses of
the matter for the time being. First of
all he must defeat Glover. The latter
is already on his way to Minneapolis,
and tonight gives an exhibition at Mil
waukee with Florrie Barrett. he will
arrive in st. Paul Sunday with Parson
Davies and Arthur Chambers, and will
put up at the Hotel Ryan.

DUE TO MINNESOTA.
How a Clerk for the Government
Regained His Health.

Special to the GLOBE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. TO- Benjamin
Messer, singing school teacher in
Maine, lost his voice, portion of his
lungs, and his throat was so affected
that his life was despaired of by his
friends and family. He went to Hi
nois in 1852 for his health, but con-
tinued to grow worse. He went further,
and settled in st. Paul, in November,
1852 Then he began to mend in health,
and made a homestead entry near
AnOka. Changing it to a cash entry, he
returned to st. Paul in 1858, went to st.
Anthony, and finally located in Mime
apOlis in 1854, while the land there was
still a portion of the military reserva-
ton. He was the second sheriff of Hen
nepin county, member of the first con-
stitutional convention, and one of the
most active men of early times in Min
nesOta. His health was perfectly re-
stored by the climate of the Northwest,
and i'm 1861 he came to Washington and
accepted government position, which
was offered him by Senator Ramsey.
He has been in Office ever since. He
was found to-day by the GLOBE in the

NOROUAY In A BOX.
Several of His Supporters Said to
Have Denounced Him.

Have Denounced Him.
Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., Nov. lot looks
as if poor old Norquay was, to use a
slangism, ''up the spout" Recent de-
yelopments in connection with the aid
given to the Hudson Bay railway just
before the elections go to indicate that
the government secured the Doodle with
which to carry the elections and as a
result it appears that the government
advanced to the contractors 1856, 900 of
their bonds for which they should have
had 256, 900 acres of land as security, but
which they have not. This, coupled
with the previous uncertain record of
NOrquay's government and his failure
to carry through the Red River valley
scheme to successful issue has damned
the old native premier, and to-day sew
eral of his supporters and three of a
majority in the house are going about
denouncing and threatening never to
support him again. Serious diSSenSiOnS
are reported in his cabinet and it
is known one or two have resigned.
1t is said Lariviere has gone back upon
him or been told to get out. The Oppo-
sition are intriguing with certain MEM
beers for coalition government, but it
is not yet known how the cat will jump.
Norquay is reported to have said to-day
if his former supporters did not give
him written pledges they would support
him, he would send them back to their
constituents. If he had to die he would
die hard and he would kick until the
last drop of political blood had left him.
One thing is pretty certain, that the
Red River road will not be built here
this year. Partyism had crept in to too
great an extent; certain members of the
opposition being more anxious to secure
a party triumph than seek to have the
road built. The principal difficulty
seems to be that Norquay'S government
cannot be trusted. Interesting devel-
opments are expected in the course of a
dav Or two

THE VOTE ON DIVISION
A Brief Glance at the Ballot in Da.
kota Tuesday.
THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH.
One Section Opposes Division, While
the Other Votes for Two
States.

The majorities for and against diyis
ion in Dakota will not vary much
from those given in the tables below.
About three-ffths of the voters seem to
have cast their ballots. Only five or
six OF the counties in South Dakota
give majorities against division, and
nine of the Northern counties favor two
states. 1t would thus appear that while
South Dakota wants to be made state
of itself, North Dakota is seriously op-
posed to the siicing process. According
to the figures given herewith presented,
North Dakota is for union by 3,572 ma
jOrity, and South Dakota for separation
by Is, 416 majority, the net majority for
division being 9,S44. 1t is pretty plain
that the stay-at-homes and antl-division-
lists considerably out number the di-
visionists. The majorities in the coun-
ties of the two sections are about as
follows:

STRAY SUNBEAMS.

There is probably no other American
city in which the hanging of the anarch-
lists would create so much apprehension
as in Chicago. And for that matter there
is no other city on this continent where
the haymarket riot would have occurred.
-
1t is ChicagO's misfortune not only to
have the worst element in the world
mixed up with its population, but these
bad people are more numerous there
than anywhere else. 1t is becoming the
city of refuge for the lawlesS elements
of all countries, and the time is coming
when in its own protection Chicago will
have to adopt some sort of an alien
sedition law.
-
1t is to be hoped that Anarchist
LINGG's secret of bomb-making has
died with him. 1t is said that LINGG
could have realized a million of dollars
out or his bomb invention, but steadily
refused to make it public. LINGG's last
act was proof that he made good bombs.
-
LINGG cheated the gallows out of its
dues, but he didn't swindle the devil.

Civilization has evidently reached the
Pacific coast. The Monrovia (Cal.)
Leader contains the following local
item: 1.-The matter of establishing a
cemetery here is under consideration.

1t will now be in order for somebody

DICK OGLEsBY. He is old, but he is
nervy, and the Republicans might go
farther and fare worse in search of a
presidential candidate.

If the new doctrine of Muscular
Christianity is always to be followed by
such tragic results as accompanied the
Y. NJ. c. AS exhibition last night, it
will soon wane in popularity. A gym
nasium is good thing in its place, but
when gymnastic exercises are con-
Quoted with such reckless disregard of
limb and life as was done in last night
exhibition, it is time for the law to step
in and define the limits of athletic
sports.
Some one evidently in spirit of fun
sent an internal dynamite machine
through the mails to st. Paul citizen
yesterday. When the perpetrator of the
hoax finds out that he has committed a
penitentiary offense, and if found out
will be sent to join SCHwAB and
FIELDEN, he will, perhaps, laugh out of
the other side of his mouth.

slightly less than in 1881, the thirty-one

The quality of the crop is much lower
than usual, in the dry region, and the
proportion of merchantable corn is con-
siderably below the average.
